Elizabeth Dwyer
I'm a multifaceted writer with bylines, screenwriter credits, and published essays. I wrote and co-produced two award-winning short films, "Imagining Vera" and "Pinky Promise", and two of my academic essays were recently published in the collection "When Women Wrote Hollywood: Essays on Female Screenwriters in the Early Film Industry" (MacFarland, 2018).
My scripts have placed in several competitions, including the ISA Fast Track Fellowship, WeScreenplay Diverse Voices, and the George R.R. Martin Screenwriting Grant. AFF's 25th Anniversary marks the second time I've attended the festival as a Second Rounder, for my pilot script "North Amerikay."
My reporting work is available at news.unm.edu, and examples of my personal essays can be seen on ElephantJournal.com and the blog Beauty Coup. I also secretly write feminist erotic fiction, both short form and a novel-length story set to be published in late 2018.
